# How to Use Farms

<figure><img src="/files/WJ8D2GhE5diFH7hhdMWH" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### Farms are a great way to earn MAF rewards

To participate in farms, the user will need to provide liquidity a certain pair of tokens. \
After providing liquidity, the user receives LP tokens. \
\
LP tokens can be placed on the farm to earn a reward.

The farm allows users to earn MAF while maintaining a earning position in liquidity pools.

### Preparation

* To participate in the farm, you will need "LP tokens". Farms can only accept their own exact LP tokens.
* For example, the MAF-BNB farm will only accept MAF-BNB LP tokens.
* To get an LP token, you need to provide liquidity for this trading pair.
* Thus, in order to receive MAF-BNB LP tokens, you will first need to ensure the liquidity of the MAF-BNB pair.
